Making the decision on what exactly the right age is to give a child their first mobile phone used to be a delicate one for parents. My sister and I didn’t get our first phones until we turned 16; kids these days are walking around with their father’s hand me down iPhone 4 when they’re in kindergarten. Older people worry kids are getting attached to technology too early, but parents say it’s the only way to know their kids are okay.
